I actually don't include those as Grateful Dead shows, I regard them as outside of the canon. "Jerry Garcia and Friends" shows perhaps?

When it comes to bass, accept no substitute for Phil Lesh!

We have Phil's word for it!

Q: How many Grateful Dead shows have you seen?
PHIL: All of them.

Actually, it raises an interesting philosophical question.... Jerry once mourned that he had never seen a Grateful Dead show, and could never see one. And he was always going on about the subjectivity of the experience, how anyone's perception of the show might not match anyone else's, but they would all be equally valid.

Oh, OK. I agree with bk on the principle, and I agree with Phil because I don't think most people who argued with him would get the best of it.

Actually I think Phil said something similar -- about never having been to a Dead show. In that sense.
